Theresa never claimed me before, she asked a few times, but somehow, I could never bring myself into agreeing. I never knew why, perhaps the thought that she was never really my fated mate gave me the feeling of reluctance and trepidation. Even though Theresa and I had officially mated somehow, I have never lost the hope of finding my true mat
